The Butter and Egg Man is the only play Kaufman didn't write in collaboration with another writer. The 1925 comedy concerns a civilian who casts his lot in the theatre business with disastrous results. The original Broadway production ran 243 performances with James Gleason directing. At the time Kaufman had already written Merton of the Movies and Beggar on Horseback and was about to pen the book to the Marx Brothers show, The Cocoanuts.

The play begins previews Sept. 12 for an opening on Oct. 2. Also part of the Atlantic 2002-03 season are Conor McPherson's Dublin Carol and Joe Penhall's Blue/Orange (beginning Nov. 6).
